Tax Forecast Premature Says House Democrats
Two key Ways and Means Democrats caution it is too early to judge a net tax cut next year. Rep Hale Boggs and Rep Wilbur Mills side with delaying a firm decision until spring. Senator George, however, suggests a possible 3 to 3.5 billion dollar cut in the fiscal year starting July 1. The White House declines to speculate while Eisenhower and GOP leaders hear of an optimistic outlook.
